     5  qualities  and  qualifications  in  persons  engaged  in the practice of
     6  barbering, as herein defined, having been unquestionably established and
     7  demonstrated and in order to safeguard the health  of  the  persons  who
     8  patronize  the  barber  shops  of  our  state  [and because of the evils

    14  who patronize the barber shops of our state by making adequate provision
    15  for the examination, licensing and regulation of the  barber  shops  and
    16  the  barbers  and apprentices to whom such persons submit themselves for
    17  barber work.

    19  added by chapter 801 of the laws of 1946, is amended to read as follows:
    20    2.  [The establishment of itinerant shops is hereby prohibited and the
